Posted are the previous lectures for this course. Good luck preparing for the quiz!
Hope you all had a wonderful summer break and enjoy your firs few week of class! Come visit us at our first weekly meeting next Tuesday, September 22 at 6 p.m. in B56 Hildebrand. We will talk about our upcoming projects for the semester and new additions to our curriculum for engineering design. Lower and upper division CCNs will be distributed at the end of the meeting. Join us if you would like to learn more about our DeCal! Its not too late to sign up, we still have spots. As always, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you have any inquiries or comments.
Thanks to everyone in the electronics and circuits group who assembled the ECG Simulator kits last month! All the kits are working and have been sent to the national EWH chapter, which will then be sent to third world countries. These kits will be used to train biomedical engineering technicians (BMETs) how ECGs work so that such skills can be utilized in clinical settings. Also, broken kits can be used in troubleshooting classes. Troubleshooting skills are especially essential in developing nations; repairing rather than purchasing brand new equipment is often more frugal and equally as effective. Hopefully these soldering workshops were a good gateway to the electronics world. Indeed, you do not necessarily need to be an engineering major to enjoy these types of activities in your spare time!
If you found this enjoyable, you can always solder something yourself. Equipment is fairly inexpensive, with hobbyist soldering stations ranging from $10 to $100. Soldering can be mastered by anyone and has versatile applications, whether it be a repair job or other cool projects such as nixie tube clocks and LED cubes. Before throwing out unwanted hardware, try desoldering and soldering on them for fun! We have only gone over through-hole soldering. Consider surface-mount soldering, where you directly mount the component onto the PCB surface rather than sticking leads through the PCB. Many commercial- and industrial-grade electronics especially implement surface-mount technologies. From tomorrow onwards, weekly meetings will be held same time and place. Everyone should have been assigned to a project group this semester. The ECG Simulator project focuses on electronics and circuits, while the HIV Diagnostics project focuses on AutoCAD and 3D printing. Tomorrow we will give a sample public health presentation on cardiovascular diseases and then split into our project groups!
Hope you all had a wonderful winter break and enjoy your first week of class! Come visit us at our first weekly meeting next Tuesday, February 3 at 6 p.m. in 224 Wheeler Hall. We will talk about our upcoming projects for the semester and new additions to our curriculum for engineering design. Lower and upper division CCNs will be distributed at the end of the meeting. Join us if you would like to learn more about our DeCal!
As always, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you have any inquiries or comments. Come learn more about what we have in store for you this semester at next Wednesday's DeCal Expo from 5 to 7 p.m. Featuring demos on AutoCAD designs, soldering projects, and more!
Feel free to email us at [email protected] if you have any questions. ECG simulator project members, our building sessions are on Sundays, October 12, 19, and 26 from 3 to 5 p.m. We will immediately start work on your individual practice kits. Soldering equipment and supplies are provided at no cost. Be sure to review what we went over in the last two lectures before building. If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]! Welcome to a new school year! Join us at our first general meeting this Tuesday, September 9 at 7 p.m. in 155 Barrows Hall. We will talk about our upcoming projects for the semester and new additions to our curriculum for engineering design. Please join us if you would like to learn more about our club or have any questions!
Pizza and refreshments will be provided free of charge! Please email us at [email protected] for more information. Thanks to everyone who came to our first general meeting last Tuesday! You can find the slides from the general meeting below. Weekly meetings will be held at the same location and time (Tuesdays, 6 to 8 p.m., B51 Hildebrand Hall). Tomorrow we will be starting our first computer design lecture and class semester project discussion. Please email us at [email protected] if you have any questions and concerns.
Please join us at our first general meeting on Tuesday, January 28, 6 p.m. at B51 Hildebrand Hall to learn more about our organization!
We will also be giving out CCNs and the syllabus for the DeCal at this meeting. Free food and drinks will be provided! For more information, contact us at [email protected]. |
